Ahem, see how it’s done Britain?
Nah rookie mistake. She tried to return them.
When we steal stuff we make entire museums around the items that declare ‘this is our shit now’…

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Items belonging to World War Two Bletchley Park codebreaker Alan Turing, that were stolen from the UK almost 40 years ago, have been returned from the US.
The mathematician’s miniature OBE medal is among 17 items that were taken from Sherborne School in Dorset by Julia Turing, who is no relation, in 1984.
“His crucial work as a cryptanalyst at Bletchley Park and his enormous contribution to the development of computing and artificial intelligence were not merely of vital practical significance at the time but continue to underpin many of today’s most important intellectual and technological advances,” he said.
“I am most grateful to all those, in the US and closer to home, who have worked so hard to ensure the safe return of these precious artefacts.”
As well as attending Sherborne School, he gained a mathematics degree at King’s College, Cambridge, and a PhD at Princeton University in New Jersey.
Apart from Sherborne School, the only other places believed to hold more of his personal belongings are Bletchley Park and Cambridge University’s King’s College.
